"Military science fiction [concentrating] on the psychology and politics of societies in conflict"— Analog , on the Confederated Worlds series The Confederated Worlds lost the war. Can Lt. Tomas Neumann win the peace? By the terms of the peace treaty, the citizens of the planet Arden will vote to stay in the Confederated Worlds or join the victorious Progressive Republic. Newly-minted Lieutenant Tomas Neumann leads his overstretched and demoralized Confederated Worlds Ground Force platoon in a mission that pushes men and machines to their limits, against elusive, deceptive foes out to tilt Arden to the Progressive Republic—and turn the Confederated Worlds against itself. Operation Iago is the second book in the Confederated Worlds series, following Take the Shilling. ========== Want to learn more about science fiction author Raymund Eich? Here’s a Q&A to tell you more about this distinctive voice in new science fiction. First Raymund Eich. Am I spelling it correctly? And how do you pronounce it? That’s the correct spelling. My immigrant parents split the difference between the Anglo-French Raymond and the German Raimund . My last name is pronounced with a long-i vowel sound, like both syllables in Einstein . The preferred consonant sound is a sh. Overall, one syllable, eye-sh . Tough to pronounce, and also tough to spell. I’ve seen Elch, Einch, Etch, Eitch, Iech, and Erich. The misspellings used to bother me, but I’ve grown philosophical about them. What are some of your publishing credits? I’ve had short stories published in Analog science fiction and fact magazine and the sci fi anthology Surviving Tomorrow . And over a dozen novels and six short story collections are available as ebooks and paperback books, and some also as audiobooks. Final question. Science fiction, sci fi, SF, speculative fiction, or spec fic? Is it an adventure on future Earth, an exploration of a distant planet, a discovery beyond the limits of human knowledge, or a journey across deep space? Then I’ll read it. The genre fiction label doesn’t matter.
